More quotes by Stephen King
Terror. When you come home and notice everything you own has been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It’s when the lights go out and you feel something behind you-you hear it-you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around there’s nothing there.
Stephen King
It's dialogue that gives your cast their voices, and is crucial in defining their characters.
Stephen King
She felt like someone who drowns remembering what it was like to still be on the boat, so calm and at ease, so carelessly safe
Stephen King
That's the day's business. Thinking. Thinking and isolation, because it doesn't matter if you pass the time of day with someone or not in the end, you're alone. He seemed to have put in as many miles in his brain as he had with his feet. The thoughts kept coming and there was no way to deny them.
Stephen King
Pride was the belt you used to hold your pants up when you had no pants.
Stephen King
Any parting could be forever, and we don't know.
Stephen King

Stephen King
Life was such a wheel that no man could stand upon it for long. And it always, at the end, came round to the same place again.
Stephen King
They were nice enough people and all, but there wasn't much love in them. Because they were too busy being afraid. Love didn't grow very well in a place where there was only fear, just as plants didn't grow very well in a place where it was always dark.
Stephen King
Money can't buy off the lightning.
Stephen King
The world had teeth and it could bite you with them anytime it wanted.
Stephen King
Death was no less a miracle than birth.
Stephen King
But this wealth of information produced little or no insight.
Stephen King
It's a cash and carry world. Sometimes you pay a little. Mostly it's a lot. Sometimes, it's everything you have.
Stephen King
Eddie discovered one of his childhood's great truths. Grownups are the real monsters, he thought.
Stephen King
God doesn't bribe, child. He just makes a sign and lets people take it as they will.
Stephen King
What Jack didn't understand was that no matter where he went, the same asshole got off the plane.
Stephen King
The late afternoon sunlight, warm as oil, sweet as childhood.
Stephen King
